Dean Done Wrong 

The Associated Press reports that front-running Democratic presedential hopefulls lambasted Dean, and deservedly so, for his statements related to the confederate flags and Southern voters.

Apparently Dean is now courting Southerners with confederate flags on their pickup trucks. His rationale is that these good 'ol boys are people too (a.k.a. voters) and they used to vote as Democrats.

Leadership lesson #1 - unite people behind a shared vision.
The Democratic party already has an identity and a large part of it involves a general desire to support the civil rights of all people. Soliciting votes from people who disagree with this concept of civil rights is a "disconnect" (a.k.a., brain fart).
